PwC has selected Canary Wharf as the location for its new UK office, signing up for approximately 350,000 square feet of office space in one of London’s biggest commercial property moves this year.
The firm will occupy One Eden, formerly known as 33 Canada Square, a landmark building that is set to undergo a major redevelopment ahead of PwC’s arrival. The property is currently used by Citigroup as part of its European, Middle East and Africa operations while the bank completes the refurbishment of its neighbouring headquarters at 25 Canada Square.
PwC said the decision followed an extensive review of potential sites across London. The move comes as the firm prepares for the anticipated refurbishment of its long-standing headquarters at Embankment Place, where around 5,500 employees are currently based. The refurbishment is expected to continue until 2030.
The relocation marks another significant endorsement for Canary Wharf, which has been working to diversify beyond its traditional banking base by attracting professional services firms, technology companies and life sciences businesses.
For PwC, the move reflects a broader reassessment of its London property portfolio, balancing modern workplace requirements with long-term operational efficiency. The redevelopment of One Eden is expected to provide contemporary office space designed to support flexible working and collaboration.
